I hope that you have had a lovely weekend. The sunshine has disappeard however it is dry so we can all still play outside today. Have you seen Twitter? If not, take a look this moring. Our buterflies are doing really well, just waiting for one more to emere from its chrysalis. They have beautiful red and brown symmetrical patterns on their wings. Maybe you'd like to draw/paint a picture of a Painted Lady Butterfly today or this week and post it on Twitter for me to see? Below is a link to some images of them. I have made a nectar of sugar and water for them to drink and gain energy from as well as some fruit. When they first emerge, they flutter their wings to dry them out for a few minutes then they sort of bounce as they try to fly. It is gorgeous to see, I managed to film one yesterday, I was there just at the right time, it is on Twitter for you.
There are some great activities here for you today https://www.thenational.academy/online-classroom/year-2#schedule.
You will be really good at the reading one as we have looked at lots of inference questions in class. This is where the answer might not be obvious in the text, you have to think why..... Remember the "great white female with her magic wand letting the small humans cross the road into a huge building where they stayed for most of the day?" We were detectives and realised that she was a Lollypop Lady crossing school children over a busy road into school! Have a go, I'm sure you will be great detectives again today. There is also a super shape activity for you to try.
You may still have work in your packs to have a go at or there are lots of activities on our website Home Learning page. The IseeReasoning Maths ones are fabulous as well as the wriitng ideas under the Year 2 tab. What ever you do today, be kind, have fun, use your manners and know that Mrs Elson and I are thinking about you always and miss you more and more each day. You are so special to us and we are so so proud of how you have all adjusted to this new way of working. Please say hi to everyone in your family for me, I miss your grown ups too.
Have a fabulous day. I will read some more of our story later aswell. Last chapter now! I wonder how it will end?
Love from Mrs Rice ans Mrs Elson xxxxxxx
